Wow, I can't believe you could think of 101 things! I'm going to have to steal some from your and Marilee's blogs. I was laughing at your New Years' drawings because I was vaguely remembering some drawings of yours I've seen at VP, hahaha! Miss you!

Ok, I have no idea how you got 101 things on here! Kudos! Some of them made me laugh, especially the Split Infinity one b/c I used to watch that all time when I was in middle school. :) Awesome.
